On Thursday, April 01st (03:55 am New York Time) we will have German Manufacturing PMI coming out.
I recommend staying out. I will not be trading it and the only reason I post this message is because some people ask for this report.
Please read what this indicator means and how it affects the EUR/USD by going to this link: German Manufacturing PMI
The trigger for this indicator is 99999. This means: no trade.
Last time, a week ago, we had 59.6 versus 56.8 expected. The market did not care at all:

Australian Trade Balance is coming out later this evening, Wed, March 31, 20:30 New York Time
This is Jc Lyons with a potentially profitable trading opportunity...
Wednesday, March 31st (20:30 New York Time) Australia
We have Australian Trade Balance coming out. It is expected to read -1340. Last month it read -1176.
I recommend trading AUD/USD for this report.
This report does not work, and I don't trade it for so long time. The only reason I mention this report is because there are a lot of people potentially asking for this event. My answer is stay away.
For example, last month it came out at -1176 versus -1600 expected. That's quite a bit deviation, yet AUD/USD did not move at all. Oh right, it moved by 5 pips... right....
Forex news trading currency exchange charts
Please read what this indicator means and how it affects the AUD/USD by going to this link: Australian Trade Balance
A huge deviation, as always, can make surprising moves. Nevertheless, I will not be trading it.
If you like to trade it, the trigger for this indicator is 1000. This means that if Australian Trade Balance comes out at -340 or less negative, AUD/USD will probably go up by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. If it comes out at -2340 or more negative, AUD/USD will probably go down by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.
Obviously, the bigger the difference between expected and actual numbers, the bigger will be the move.
Again, feel free to skip it.

Chicago PMI is coming out tomorrow, Wed, March 31, 09:42 New York Time
On Wednesday, March 31st at 09:42 am New York Time we will have US Chicago PMI coming out. It is expected to read 61.0. Last month it read 62.6.
If anything, I recommend trading USD/JPY for this report.
This report is not working anymore, plus the number is released 3 at 9:42 to a special subscriber list. I don't really recommend to trade it but if you must, feel free to trade it.
Please read what this indicator means and how it affects the USD/JPY by going to this link: US Chicago PMI
The trigger for this indicator is 10.0 This means that if Chicago PMI comes out at 71.0 or higher, USD/JPY will probably go up by 25 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. If it comes out at 51.0 or less, USD/JPY will probably go down by 25 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.
Obviously, the bigger the difference between expected and actual numbers, the bigger will be the move.
To read the after-spike retracement strategy for this report click here: US Chicago PMI (after-spike retracement strategy)
For example: on Jan 29th, US Chicago PMI came out at 61.5, versus an expectation of 57.2. USD/JPY went up by around 30 pips. See for yourself what happened on this chart: Forex news trading currency exchange charts
I highly recommend you study the entire history and charts of this report by following this link: Forex News Trading | Details and History for USD Chicago PMI
Again, in order to get the number at 9:42, not 9:45, you need to have a special news subscription that I don't personally have so I will not trade it myself. Besides, currently it does not make a lot of pips anyway so feel free to skip it as well.
That's all for this week, have a good weekend!

Canadian GDP m/m is coming out tomorrow, Wed, March 31, 08:30 New York Time
On Wednesday, March 31st at 08:30 am New York Time we will have Canadian GDP m/m coming out. It is expected to read 0.4. Last month it read 0.6.
Please read what this indicator means and how it affects the USD/CAD by going to this link: Canadian GDP m/m
The trigger for this indicator is 0.2. This means that if Canadian GDP m/m comes out at 0.6 or higher, USD/CAD will probably go down by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. If it comes out at 0.2 or less, USD/CAD will probably go up by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.
Obviously, the bigger the difference between expected and actual numbers, the bigger will be the move.
This is not a big report to trade and sometimes a small deviation can move USD/CAD well, and sometimes big deviation does not move it at all. Consider it as a risky report to trade, even with a quite big trigger of 0.2

The trigger for this indicator is 0.7. This means that if Australian Retail Sales m/m comes out at 1.0 or more, AUD/USD will probably go up by 40 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.

UK we will have UK GDP q/q coming out
On Tuesday, March 30th (04:30 am New York Time) UK we will have UK GDP q/q coming out. It is expected to read 0.3. Last time it read 0.3.
This is not so important report because this is a third release. I want to see 0.2 deviation to enter a trade; the problem is it is 3rd numbers don't deviate often...
The trigger for this indicator is 0.2. This means that if UK GDP q/q comes out at 0.5 or higher, GBP/USD will probably go up by 35 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. If it comes out at 0.1 or lower, GBP/USD will probably go down by 35 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.
Obviously, the bigger the difference between expected and actual numbers, the bigger will be the move.
In addition to the UK GDP q/q we will have UK GDP y/y coming out. If they conflict, I recommend skipping the trade, but since m/m is part of y/y number, and our trigger is quite large, the conflict is almost impossible.

This week, we were watching 5 economic indicators. 1 of them hit the triggers that I sent to you. Let's review...
I said if UK Retail Sales m/m comes out at 1.2 or higher, GBP/USD would probably go up by 40 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.
It actually came out at 2.1 and GBP/USD moved up by 60 pips. It was a very quick move up and probably only people using autoclick software were able to take advantage of it. Sadly, it was very hard to apply any afterspike strategy. Since I trade with autoclick software and was lucky enough to have bunch of fills this time, I made a lot of pips but I know it is not true for everyone.
If you managed to grab a few pips after the spike - congratulations and good job because it was very hard to do.
Please see for yourself what happened on this chart:
Forex news trading currency exchange charts
That was the only report that deviated nicely. UK CPI also spiked nicely with only -0.1 deviation but I still don't feel like I want to be so aggressive. German reports did not work so I will not pay attention to them for a while.
Anyway, have a good Sunday!
Start Trading This week!!!

US Annualized GDP coming out
On Friday, March 26th at 08:30 am New York Time we will have US Annualized GDP coming out. This is the third reading so it does not move as much as it was the first reading. In any case, it is expected to read 5.9. Last time it read 5.9.
Please read what this indicator means and how it affects the USD/JPY by going to this link: US GDP Annualized
The trigger for this indicator is 0.7. This means that if US Annualized GDP comes out at 6.6 or higher, USD/JPY will probably go up by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. If it comes out at 5.2 or lower, USD/JPY will probably go down by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.
Obviously, the bigger the difference between expected and actual numbers, the bigger will be the move.
In addition to the Annualized GDP number, we will have Core PCE and GDP Deflator coming out. Both of them measure prices and thus are inflationary indicators. If they conflict, I recommend skipping the trade but most likely there will be no conflicts.
To read the after-spike retracement strategy for this report click here: US Annualized GDP (after-spike retracement strategy)
For example: on December 22nd, we had the third reading coming out. The annualized GDP came out at 2.2, versus an expectation of 2.8. USD/JPY went down by about 30 pips although it did not hit my trigger. See for yourself what happened on this chart: Forex news trading currency exchange charts

On Wednesday, March 24th (17:45 New York Time)
Hi there,
On Wednesday, March 24th (17:45 New York Time) we will have NZ GDP q/q coming out. It is expected to read 0.8. Last time it read 0.2.
This report happens once every 3 months so it's quite rare to trade it.
The trigger for this indicator is 0.3. This means that if NZ GDP q/q comes out at 1.1 or higher, NZD/USD will probably go up by 35 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. If it comes out at 0.5 or less, NZD/USD will probably go down by 35 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.
Obviously, the bigger the difference between expected and actual numbers, the bigger will be the move.
For example: on December 22nd, NZ GDP q/q came out at 0.2, versus an expectation of 0.4. NZD/USD went up by around 40 pips, and it did not even deviate by 0.3. See for yourself what happened on this chart: Forex news trading currency exchange charts

What they do is survey executives in manufacturing industry by asking them a series of questions about their expectations for production, new orders, deliveries, employment, and inventories, such as are you planning to fire, hire, or stay unchanged on new workers in the near future? Then they average out all the answers, and they get a number anywhere between 1 and 100.
A number of 50 means that on average, the manufacturing industry in Germany did not improve over previously measured month. A number above 50 means that the manufacturing industry expanded over previously measured month. A number below 50 means that the manufacturing industry contracted over previously measured month.
Germany is a manufacturing heartland of Euro Zone, so this number affects EUR/USD and other Euro pairs.
A better than expected number is usually good for Euro, so EUR/USD tends to go up. A worse than expected number is usually bad for Euro, so EUR/USD tends to go down.
In the signal, I tell you exactly how many pips the currency will most likely move, depending on the difference between expected and actual numbers.

CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATES
Currency exchange rates at Forex or any part of the world refers to how much one currency is worth in terms of the other. It is the value of a foreign nation’s currency in terms of the home nation’s currency. For example, the currency exchange rates of the EUR/USD and the USD/JPY.
1 EUR = 1.4029 USD To buy one euro you have to pay 1.4029 U.S. american dollars.
1 USD = 90.3668896 JPY To buy one U.S. american dollar you have to pay 90.3668896 Japanese yen.
The currency exchange rates quotations are given by stating the number of units of "quote currency" (price currency, payment currency) that can be exchanged for one unit of "base currency" (unit currency, transaction currency). For example, in a quotation that says the EUR/USD exchange rate is 1.4029 (1.4320 USD per EUR, also known as EUR/USD; see foreign exchange market), the quote currency is USD and the base currency is EUR.
How varied the currency exchange rates? The currency exchange rates vary depending on the two component that conforms its value: it those change, the currency exchange rates will do it too. If the demand of the currency increase, it will tend to be more valuable; otherwise, whenever the demand is less than the available supply, it will be less valuable.
Which are the factors that may affect the currency exchange rates? The transaction demand for money is highly correlated to the country's level of business activity, gross domestic product (GDP), and employment levels. The more people there are unemployed, the less the public as a whole will spend on goods and services.
How does the interest affect the currency exchange rates? Central banks typically have little difficulty adjusting the available money supply to accommodate changes in the demand for money due to business transactions. The speculative demand for money is much harder for a central bank to accommodate but they try to do this by adjusting interest rates. An investor may choose to buy a currency if the return (that is the interest rate) is high enough. The higher a country's interest rates, the greater the demand for that currency.
From JcLyons you have instant access to all currency exchange rates; also, you can check how a transaction will work by practicing at their training platform.

CURRENCY EXCHANGE @ JcLyons
A currency exchange transaction is performed when you buy one currency with another one.

When your intention is to EARN MONEY by performing a currency exchange transaction, you need to do the same operation mentioned above but in time. Both currencies (in this case, the U.S. Dollar and the EURO) have their own exchange rate and interest. So, when you settle a currency exchange operation, ex. buy EUR/USD for a moderate time, you open a currency exchange transaction predicting that in terms of the variables: interest, exchange rates and economy policies; you will earn money.

On the Internet you have several Forex softwares providers that allow you to download for FREE their broker in order to set all the currency exchange operations you want. Once you have downloaded the platform, you set a bank account and the quantity of money you want to invest; open the currency exchange transaction and wait for your predictions to be correct.
